Dongdaemun Designers, they are designing a Dream

Next In Fashion (NIF) is a reality show and fashion design competition series debuting on Netflix in January 2020. Over ten episodes, eighteen designers compete in rounds based on design trends and styles that influence what people wear worldwide. +

The winner of NIF, Minju Kim is from South Korea and started her own label in 2014 with her sister who runs the business side of the brand. We are very proud of her award. New star was born.


Although the choice of patterns and colors is tricky, she seems to have been highly regarded for applying patterns and colors to her own style. The birth of such a star-class designer will give a stimulus to Dongdaemun designers.

In Dongdaemun market, there are many people who design dreams. In other word, they want to be a famous designer and have a big dream of developing their own brand and becoming a wealthy merchant.

 Needless to say, any dream will come truly to those who work diligently. As we discussed with SeoulClick CEO & executives, dreaming Dongdaemun designers need to have three rules of conduct:

First, they must truly love consumers of fashion products. Dongdaemun designers should know what consumer needs and wants are and design their own fashion products on the basis of market information.

Second, they need to produce and supply better design products through constant research & development, trial and error, and improved competitiveness.

Third, it is important to wait. Dongdaemun designers, never give up! Then one day early in the morning, some on them will find themselves a star-class designer.

Unlike this discussion, any mobile report advises a great solution what a designer does is worth considering.

“Fashion designers hold a special place in our world. Their talent and vision play a big role in how people look, and also contribute to the cultural and social environment. They love to study fashion trends, sketch designs, select materials, and have a part in all the production aspects of their designs.” ++

Dreaming Dongdaemun designers should also listen to other advices. that is,

“By focusing on how a product will be made, how it will used, and what will happen to it afterwards, designers can unlock the full value of clothing.” +++

In Dongdaemun market, designers are influential market people who determine the rise and fall of Dongdaemun fashion business. Their thought and actions are like a bright milestone toward the future of Dongdaemun fashion business.

We are sure Dongdaemun designers will do so with flying colors.

As we often discussed, wholesalers in Dongdaemun market have continued to grow and develop their business size and performance with a peculiar marketing strategy of ‘selling good fashion products at lower prices’. Recently, however, the number of local retailers and foreign buyers visiting Dongdaemun wholesale market has declined significantly. Many people have been greatly worried about the difficult situation of Dongdaemun market. Is Dongdaemun market a chronic management crisis? Or is the market's future situation really dark?

Dongdaemun Fashion and Supply-side Management

  We often discuss whether the source of any fashion product is a design lab and a sewing factory, or a market to meet consumers. The issue of debate is whether it is a push on the supply side or a pull on the demand side. In fact, accounts differ.   Of course, designers’ creative designs, production in sewing factories, and supply and shipment to the wholesale market are made according to the consumer needs or preferences, and their desires. Some of suppliers, however, act as a driving force to stimulate and induce fashion consumers’ preferences and willingness to buy.   In Dongdaemun market, many designers, entrepreneurial wholesalers, and many small and medium-sized sewing factories scattered in Gangbuk, Seoul, as well as shops of an innumerable number of textiles and various fashion parts, are focused mainly on supply- side management.   They make decisions together or separately. They are partners, but sometimes competitors. Business behavior between these partn...
